Estimation of power coal enrichment in cyclones with recirculation of intermediate product

W artykule przedstawiono wyniki analizy wzbogacania grawitacyjnego węgla we fragmencie układu technologicznego przeróbki węgla - wzbogacania w cyklonach z recyrkulacją strumieni produktu przejściowego. Dla dwóch wersji układu technologicznego wyznaczono optymalne gęstości rozdziału wzbogacalników przy różnych wartościach współczynnika recyrkulacji. Podane zostały względne wartości produkcji dla rozpatrywanych przypadków wzbogacania.In design of the coal preparation process control systems the computer simulation models are very useful. Computer simulation allows considering, in an efficient way, various variants of technological system solutions, analyzing conditions of preparation process course in case of commercial contracts changed and while raw coals characteristics are changed. The procedure how to determine the maximum production value has been presented in two exemplary technological systems with recirculation of intermediate product. System analysis has been accomplished using computer simulation software of coal preparation processes, which makes possible multivariant analysis and estimation of effects of preparation operations of technological systems. The integral part of this software is an algorithm of searching the function algorithm of control target, i.e. the maximum production function of preset quality. Results of power coal enrichment in technological system with recirculation of intermediate product have been presented in the paper. For two version of technological scheme and different production foredesign the optimal separation densities for each gravitational separator (water only cyclones and dense medium cyclones) have been calculated. Relative production value in considered cases have been show
